HOTDISH stands for "Hand Over The Decision—It Should be Hers," and was founded in 2003 to ensure reproductive justice for all women and young people in the Northland.  HOTDISH Militia is a grassroots organization working to address the sexual and reproductive health needs of women and queer young people in their communities and to improve access to abortion care.

In addition to abortion funding, the HOTDISH Militia combats the reproductive injustices faced by female identified and queer youth through The RISE Initiative, which is focused on bringing young people’s voices to the reproductive health and justice table.  The Militia is also a part of the Spoke’ N Heart Bike Collective, a group of self-identified women who organize bike tours with a focus on social justice issues, and is currently developing new projects in partnership with The Rainbow Health Initiative, The Duluth YWCA, and The White House Project.  Stay tuned.

For abortion funds, raising money is half the battle, because they can’t help women unless they have something to give.  Donating to your local abortion fund means giving a woman the resources she needs to make the choice that is right for her.
